The Role
Was good.
It might be cliche but the people at Accenture are truly excellent.
Though they can get incredibly busy, they will be there to offer support. And other colleagues.
Varies a lot with consultancy.
Again, varies a lot.
Recommend taking a gap year to work. You will learn a lot depending on if you get good projects.
The Company
Depends who your client is. Obviously in corporate places it's not going to be a party.
They did a good job with me personally, other interns may not have had the same experience.
Financial and personal.
Sports and Social Club
Subsidised/Company Gym
Financial Bonus
Company Parties/Events
Summer internship and possibly graduate job.
The Culture
Yes
If it's with work expensive, if it's with interns it's not.
Bars
Charity days etc.
